Clean Energy & Climate-Smart Farming for Houston Growers
Across Houston and beyond, we’re reshaping farm sustainability through advanced agrivoltaic technology. Our agrivoltaic farming systems in Houston are designed to produce clean solar energy while supporting agricultural productivity on the same land. We help Houston farms save on electricity, boost crop results, and weather the seasons more reliably.
We’re one of the only agrivoltaic providers in Texas helping Houston farms meet energy and profit goals with custom microgrids.
Solar Farming Grounded in Research for Houston Growers
We’re part of a movement to shape farming’s future — and Houston is part of that change. As part of UTRGV’s landmark “Agrivoltaics for Climate-Smart Agriculture” effort, we contribute hands-on expertise to support research and innovation. Backed by USDA funding, this project blends cutting-edge solar tech with academic research to evaluate agrivoltaics in real Texas conditions.
The project’s solar arrays are now live, thanks to installation by Fortress Microgrid. They are paired with a Multichannel Automated Chamber System, a technology that continuously measures greenhouse gas emissions, soil moisture levels, and atmospheric conditions. The results are helping us understand how solar can enhance land health and sustainability in Houston.
How We Install Agrivoltaic Systems in Houston, TX
Our systems are custom-built to fit the exact conditions and goals of your land in Houston. Your system may feature high-efficiency bifacial panels for dual-sided solar capture, paired with advanced inverters and backup-ready energy storage. Your project starts with a full site review and ends with a precision-fit agrivoltaic system.
We also provide easy-to-use system interfaces that let you monitor your energy production and consumption in real time, empowering you to make smart, data-driven decisions on the farm.
What Makes Fortress Microgrid a Smart Choice for Houston Farms
We’re a Texas-born company that works closely with farmers, ranchers, and rural landowners across the region — including Houston. We design with Texas in mind: extreme heat, unique soil compositions, and the diverse challenges Houston farmers face. Through our partnership with UTRGV, we stay connected to the latest agrivoltaic research and adapt our solutions to deliver measurable environmental benefits and long-term ROI.
From USDA grants to solar tax credits, we guide Houston farmers through their funding options for agrivoltaic projects.
